Dental Check Ups in Poole

How often should I have a check up?

Your Poole dentist will advise on how often you should have your teeth checked as part of your oral care routine. This will depend on your individual needs. Some people schedule a dental check up once or twice a year, while others, who may require or have undergone treatment, will need to visit more frequently. You and your local Newark dentist will discuss the most suitable frequency for general check ups and work out a date and time that suits you.
